The Game from Slendah by Slendah

The game is crazy my brother
Don't let em trick you by saying its only business
The game is crazy my brother
Don't let em trick you by saying its only business
The game is crazy my brother
Don't let em trick you by saying its only business
The game is crazy my brother
Don't let em trick you by saying its only business


Nowadays we'd rather give excuses than get inspired,
I'm tired of choosing using these blessings abusively
Could wired funds be the catalyst to living beautifully?
Absolutely getting used to the idea
This life here ain't sittin cool with me
I ain't sittin around
I'm bound to gettin it down
How about, we quit talkin about
What we are without and take a look around you
Now incorporate a unique sound
How bout dat?
My confines are constructed by my own vowels
What could I now amount to?
Anything at any moment
We could be that
Through sacrifice it won't suffice
To only kinda be that
I kinda need that
People, I really need that
So how can I say I need you without
ripping out my heart and showing you I bleed
crimson, like you?
Listen, I do, too
Live this life, like you

How can I lead ya when I know my vices
But never truly admit to them thriving off my survival
This vital time feeling idol
But melody checks my vitals
I'm confident I'll get over it
It's all in my head, I can get over it
I created this for me, I can get over it
This I'm deserving of, this what I'm working with everything's perfect and being one with the universe surely is reassuring me

2-2-2
This what separates real or fake
The dual view needed
To experience this today
2-2-2
Manipulation or influence
The difference is in the system
The wisdom is in the mission
2-2-2
A deeper understanding of our separation
What really makes us who we are; are we each others' makings?
Constantly creating our surrounding motivation
A community of cultivation
To be a hunnit
I need a hunnit eleven
Cause everyone is the one
To get this one thing done
Nothing but heavenly intentions, son
You'll believe all the ego of hero
"The chosen one"
But don't lose your focus
Hone in on coping with it at once
This ain't hocus pocus
Better get shit done
You've only got it cause I say you got it
How much do you really want it?
Will you really remember where it came from?
(2:50)
I want the Whole Thang
through Everything I Do
Ain't seen a church on a Sunday
But I feel God in the booth
And I feel God in my pen
And when I put on my shoes
And it's true, I feel God
Through the veins of my crew
And yet, with each step I'm fucking
anxious to move
That's why I need y'all to push me, too
How can I say this?
If I only cared about myself, my life would be courageous
But it's energy that makes us all amazing

Seems like I've had the hardest time expressing myself.
Like I know who everyone around me is but don't know myself.
There is no difference.
We are one in the same and we are here today because we deserve to be.
Allow ourselves to embrace company of soul and enhance the entities we create through connection.
Any intellectual can sense our presence, so let's shape this reality.
We are free to play in this land of milk and honey.
Thrive but be weary.
Drink, don't drown.
Stick, don't get stuck.
Live, die. Be.
